Ex-PayPal | Data Engineer | Software Engineer | Python | SQL | PySpark | BigQuery | GCP | Data Platforms | AI

After a little over a year at PayPal, my role was recently impacted by a restructuring, and I’m now exploring new opportunities in Software Engineering and Data Engineering. During my time at PayPal, I had the opportunity to work on production data systems involving Python, SQL, PySpark, BigQuery and GCP. I worked on enterprise data ingestion pipelines, consolidated 70+ billion historical records into a unified master view, built automation and monitoring solutions, and worked on infrastructure and cost optimizations. I also contributed to an AI-assisted test-case automation tool across its UI, data storage, API integration, and AI optimization. I’m particularly interested in opportunities involving Data Engineering, Software Engineering, Data Platforms, or ML/AI Engineering. If you know of a team hiring for roles that could be a good fit, I’d really appreciate an introduction or referral. And if you’re simply open to connecting, I’d be happy to connect as well. Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout this journey. I genuinely appreciate it.
